Chapter 359: Nuwa Is Pregnant, Yinglong Enters the North Pole
Yuan Huang's voice was full of sighs, and he said leisurely:
"Not to mention the innate sacredness, even those ordinary beings have many calculations in their hearts, not to mention those darlings of heaven and earth. How can they be so simple to get to this day."
"Even Hong Yun, who used to be known for his countless friends and righteousness, didn't he hesitate to cause turmoil in the prehistoric world for the opportunity to become a saint?"
"As for what role the Heaven Court played in it, all the gods knew it well, but what the Heaven Court did was more in line with their interests, so they pretended not to see it."
"People like you who are pure-minded are rare in the prehistoric world. I don't know how a cotton ball like you was born among the shrewd dragons."
Ying Long wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to start. Compared with his brothers, he was indeed not good at planning.
Yuan Huang glanced at Ying Long and said directly:
"Okay, I already know why you came. When the time comes, the Phoenix Clan will naturally not stay out of it. Let's go. It won't delay you from looking for Shi Qilin."
Ying Long smacked his lips, hesitated for a while, and then explained:
"I dare not deceive fellow Daoist Yuan Huang. Fellow Daoist Shi Qilin and the Qilin Clan are not among the invitations mentioned by my elder brother this time."
"Of course, this matter is not just about dragons and phoenixes. Later, I will go to the North Pole to visit the Xuanwu Clan."
Yuan Huang was slightly stunned, and after a long time, he sighed:
"The flow of heaven and earth does not change according to human will. Today I realized that things are different from people. Forget it, let's go."
Ying Long saw Yuan Huang like this, so he did not stay any longer and went to the extreme north.
After Yinglong left, Yuanhuang smiled sadly and said:
"Yuanfeng, we didn't lose unfairly. Zulong was much more cruel than the two of us. He lost because of the weather, while you and I lost to the dragon clan."
In the Jishui Water Palace, Jishen lay on the couch. The rippling water was turbulent, and Jishen was sleeping in his dreams.
After a long time, he propped himself up slightly and said loudly:
"I slept comfortably, peacefully in the water palace. I don't care about the changing winds and clouds in the prehistoric world. I live in the water, which is higher and wider than the sky and the earth."
Picking up the document on the table, Jishen just glanced at it lightly, then threw it on the ground casually, turned around and fell asleep again.
The water gods took care of the hydrological affairs of the Jishui River, and the affairs of the heavenly court had no control over him. Although he couldn't disobey the words of the emperor, there was no seal of getting up early on the document of the heavenly court.
Ji Shen was indifferent to the catastrophe. He was absolutely sure of his strength. As long as he did not take the initiative to walk into the center of the battlefield, outsiders could not threaten him.
The name of Jishui Qingyuan King was not only because the water he entered into the sea was clear, but also because he had always kept himself clean and rarely interfered in the affairs of the prehistoric world.
As the head of the four rivers and eight streams, and now the second highest status of the water gods, he naturally knew a lot about the catastrophe. Although he had many causes and effects, he did not have to die.
The most important thing was that Ji Shen was different from the other gods. He did not have too many thoughts about leaving the prehistoric continent. Now, he naturally took a muddle-headed attitude towards the catastrophe.
"What's the point of their plans? We are just floating duckweeds in the world. How can we stir up waves? If we intervene without authorization, we will only cause the water to dry up and the sun to shine."
"Instead of seeking outside, it is better to follow the primitive world and go with the flow. It is true. How many people are really wise?"
Ji Shen muttered and moved his body. What does the human affairs have to do with him, the earth god? The heaven is the heaven, and he is him.
If the heaven wants to live, then he can't die. If the heaven wants to die, then he can't struggle. Just prepare for the possibility of reincarnation. Ji Shen doesn't want to get involved in more things.
There are so many ambitious people in the primitive world. Why does he need to be in the chaos of the human world? With such thoughts in mind, Ji Shen quietly fell asleep.
In the Wahuang Heaven, Qi planted the ginseng fruit tree, sprinkled some Sanguang divine water, and looked at Nuwa beside him and said:
"Since you are unwilling to help, why are you still waiting here? You might as well take care of your baby with this time."
Qi's face was full of smiles. After entering the Wahuang Heaven, he knew that Nuwa was also pregnant, but it was still a long time before the birth, so it was not obvious now.
Nuwa propped up her chin with one hand, tilted her head slightly, her eyes full of smiles, her eyebrows frivolous, and said with a smile:
"Why, am I still bothering my husband here? Husband, don't forget that you are in my Wahuangtian now."
Qi was quite embarrassed by Nuwa's words about husband. He twisted his body slightly, glared at Nuwa, and said:
"Don't make such a weird gesture. You are not Xihe and Changxi, and I am not Dijun. Why do you imitate them? It's just making people uncomfortable."
Nuwa said nothing, just laughed to herself. In the silver bell-like laughter, Qi fled.
As soon as he left Wahuangtian, Qi immediately went to the Heavenly Palace. He said he was running away, but in fact it was because the day of the bathing sun was approaching. As one of the emperors of the Heavenly Palace, Qi could not be absent from such a grand event.
Moreover, Qi also needs to go and inform the dragon clan, the overlord of the four seas, first. Although Zulong is trapped in the water eye, he is still the patriarch of the scale-armored clan.
This is related to the heaven and earth, and it falls in the East China Sea. Out of etiquette, Qi should go there.
Moreover, the situation in the prehistoric world has changed. The heaven court has divided the princes and there are many countries. The dragon clan will definitely not be content. Qi also needs to go there to test and knock them.
Otherwise, with Zulong's ambition, who knows what surprises he will bring to the Heavenly Court, and how much shocking impact he will have on the prehistoric world.
For those innate gods of the older generation, their experiences are too many and too wide, and Qi dare not trust them at all.
Under history, there is nothing new. These ancient gods are like predators lurking under muddy water. If the muddy currents in the water are not swept away, no one knows what is hidden in it.
They are invisible to people, and they do not know their depth, nor do they know their dangers. They are experienced, knowledgeable, and ambitious, and they do not allow people to be careless.
Under the high pressure of heaven and earth, they are trapped on the shallows, and naturally cannot stretch, appearing harmless to humans and animals.
And now the Heavenly Court has taken the initiative to reduce their restraints, let them return to the deep water, disrupt the situation, and allow them to hide their bodies.
If they are not shackled at this time when the dragon has not returned to the sea and the tiger has not entered the mountains and forests, it will be difficult to restrict them in the future.
Yinglong stepped into the Arctic, the biting cold wind blew, looking at the snow in front of him, a little shock flashed in his eyes.
The cold wind was filled with evil spirits that had existed since the beginning of the world. Ordinary people would freeze to death just by approaching, let alone going deep into this place.
There was no spiritual power between heaven and earth. Although there was a relatively strong innate spiritual energy, it was very complicated and could not be used at all.
"The Xuanwu tribe actually lived in such a barren land. No wonder this place could be used as a refuge during the catastrophe of the fierce beasts."
"I'm afraid that even the fierce beasts would not want to live here for a long time with this biting cold wind. But how could the Xuanwu tribe endure such a poor mountain and bad water?"
Yinglong himself was very powerful, so he was naturally not afraid of this mere cold wind and evil spirit. However, even he found the coldness here unbearable, and naturally became more confused about Xuanwu's choice at the time.
A gust of wind passed by, blowing up thousands of feet of snow. Yinglong seemed to have sensed something, and waved his hand casually, and the ice field suddenly burst open.
Yinglong followed the ice crevice down, and after falling more than 30,000 feet, he actually saw a living creature in it, no longer than ten feet long, less than nine feet high, very fat, and a group of beasts.
It looked like a larva, white all over, with a sense of ice crystals, no eyes, only a huge mouth with sharp teeth all over it, extremely ferocious.
This beast gnawed the ice crystals with its sharp teeth and fed on the frozen fish, insects, plants and trees in the ice crystals. Although it was not big in size, it could travel a hundred feet a day.
Behind this beast, countless tunnels intersected, all of which were the work of this group of beasts. The temperature in the cave under the ice field was much higher than that of the outside world, and there was no cold wind.
For this Arctic land, the underground is much more lively than the ground, and the spirit has also become a little active here.
Just as Yinglong was amazed at their lifestyle, a cold wind came down from the crack opened by Yinglong, and the temperature in the entire underground tunnel dropped rapidly.
Soon, the temperature in the tunnel was almost the same as that in the outside world. Just as Yinglong was regretting, he heard a roar from the tunnel.
Then countless responses sounded, and the tunnel began to tremble slightly, and countless beasts of the same kind as before came.
Their fat bodies were moving as hard as they could, ignoring Yinglong beside them, and rushed straight to the cave entrance connected to the crack.
They curled up their bodies and tried to gather into a ball, blocking the entire cave entrance connected to the outside world, preventing the cold wind from invading.
As they moved, their bodies exposed to the outside world gradually froze, and their breath gradually weakened until they turned into a corpse, sealing the entire cave entrance.
As they moved, the temperature of the world under the ice field began to gradually rise. Yinglong looked at this scene in surprise, feeling quite guilty.
Just when Yinglong was about to make compensation, he suddenly heard a voice saying:
"My fellow Taoist from afar, the North Pole is not a good place. I wonder why you are here?"
Yinglong swept his mind and immediately looked towards a part of the cave. Inside the cave, he saw a man in a white robe riding a white leopard slowly approaching.
The man was wearing fur, and his body was like white jade, without any flaws. It seemed that one could see through his skin and directly see the blood vessels in his body with the naked eye.
Seeing that the visitor had no ill intentions, Yinglong thought about his previous mistakes and answered:
"This far north is not a good place. I came here for some reason, so I came here to visit."
"I didn't know that the previous incident would have such an impact. I feel sorry and am willing to make up for your loss."
The man nodded, jumped off the white leopard, bowed and said:
"I am Yunshen, I am honored to meet you. I don't know why you are here. If it's okay, I will do my best to help you."
Then Yunshen seemed to think of something and added:
"If you are here for the snow lotus, then I am sorry that I can't do anything. Now it's not for the snow lotus. Lotus period, Daoist friend, you can only come here for nothing. "
"If it is my opinion, Daoist friend is also an extraordinary cultivation. If you want snow lotus, it is better to ask for it in the Heavenly Palace instead of trying your luck in the North Pole."
"The Arctic produces very little snow lotus, but the consumption is extremely large. Even if there is a surplus, most of it will be handed over to the Heavenly Palace."
"Daoist came to the North Pole to look for it, but it is really the wrong mountain gate. If we talk about the number of snow lotus in existence, I am afraid that the three extreme northern overlords, the Xuanwu clan, cannot compare with the Heavenly Palace."
"If Daoist friend is determined to look for it, it is better to find some innate things in the prehistoric world and exchange them in the Heavenly Palace. It is much easier than coming to the North Pole."
Ying Long was speechless for a moment, only looking at Yun Shen in front of him who was chattering away. He seemed to rarely meet outsiders, and he was sure that he was here for Xue Lian, and he kept giving advice.
Just when Ying Long was about to interrupt, Yun Shen rode on the white leopard again, turned around and walked towards the cave, saying hello:
"However, since fellow Taoist came here for Snow Lotus, and is more than willing to enter the Arctic for her, I can't let fellow Taoist return empty-handed."
"Although snow lotus is rare, I still have a few petals here. Although the effect is not as good as the complete one, it is still rare."
"If you don't mind, fellow Taoist, you might as well go and get it with me. I won't take advantage of you. It's just an exchange. Wherever you go, even in heaven, there won't be such a bargain."
Ying Long was quite helpless about this, but the person in front of him could at least communicate, and maybe he could find news about the Xuanwu clan from him.
The Arctic land is too closed to the outside world. Yinglong has been in the Arctic for so long and has just met the eloquent person today, so he naturally doesn't want to miss it.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
The two of them walked together, and Yun Shen kept talking about how kind and righteous he was. Ying Long's occasional reply would make him excited.
It was during Yun Shen's narration that Ying Long understood a lot about the Arctic. The strange beast he had seen before was called a snow insect, and it was an insect beast that was cultivated by all Arctic tribes.
Its skin can keep out the cold, and its meat is quite sweet and crystal clear. It is the staple food of most people in the Arctic. It is extremely mild, but its intelligence is low. Apart from being able to dig holes and being easy to raise, it has no great advantages.
The roaring sound just now was made by the insect king among them, and Yun Shen also told Yinglong not to blame himself. Those insects would often dig holes into the ice cracks.
He has long been accustomed to today's situation, and those frozen snowworms will not be wasted. After the cave entrances are frozen, someone will take them out for consumption.
When they arrived at Yunshen's cave, Yinglong finally asked:
"Fellow Taoist Yun Shen, I didn't come here because of Xue Lian. I didn't say anything before. It was because fellow Taoist didn't give me a chance. Now that I'm free, I can't deceive fellow Taoist."
Yun Shen was quite surprised by this and said:
"Fellow Taoist, if you don't come here for Snow Lotus, what is it for? Could it be Xuan Bing? But I also have some Xuan Bing here, but the quality is a little worse. All the good things have been taken away by Heaven. Fellow Taoist, you have to exchange them." ?”
Ying Long shook his head again and said:
"I'm not here for Xuan Bing either."
Yun Shen was immediately puzzled and said:
"Then why are you here, fellow Taoist? Apart from snow lotus and black ice, there are not many good things in this Arctic land in my memory."
"Is it possible that my fellow Taoist has offended someone in the outside world and is being hunted by his enemies, so he came to the Arctic to take refuge? It can't be that he is looking for the Xuanwu clan, right?"
Yinglong suddenly had a black line on his face, gritted his teeth and said:
"I am here just for the Xuanwu Clan."
Yun Shen said in confusion:
"Fellow Taoist, do you want to catch Xuanwu as a mount? But the tortoise's shell is too hard and its appearance is just average. It's not interesting to sit on. It's not as good as a snow leopard like me."
If Ying Long hadn't realized that what Yun Shen said was sincere, he might have mistakenly thought that Yun Shen was amusing himself. Looking at Yun Shen in front of him, Ying Long warned:
"Fellow Taoist, please be careful. Xuanwu is a sacred beast of heaven and earth. He is a member of the Four Spirits and the overlord of the Arctic. How can he act like a mount?"
Yun Shen didn't care about this and said:
"It doesn't sound right. I've been a Xuanwu for so many years, but I haven't seen any benefits from this status. On the contrary, living in the ice field eating wind and drinking snow, my life is not as good as that of those strange beasts."
"And speaking of the Holy Beast Tribe, we don't have the final say in this Arctic land now. We used to be a little arrogant, but then the Eastern Emperor came to heaven and almost broke his spine."
"Nowadays, these reputations are of no use. Life is still miserable. Only outsiders who don't know about it still think that Xuanwu is so noble."
"To put it bluntly, wasn't it just that I was driven to the North Pole by ferocious beasts, and then could only shrink in the ice and snow, and then was beaten to disgrace by the heaven, so I just relied on my reputation to survive."
Ying Long was immediately stunned. He was not surprised by what Yun Shen said, but he was surprised that Yun Shen was actually Xuanwu. With his strength, he had never seen through the opponent's true nature.
As for what Yun Shen said about the Heavenly Court, although he had not joined the Heavenly Court at that time, there was a record of this matter in the Heavenly Court's archives.
There is only one sentence in it: The Emperor of the East went to the North Pole and sent down Xuanwu to subdue the Northern Plains. He paid tribute to the dynasties from generation to generation and never rebelled again.
Seeing Ying Long acting like this, Yun Shen understood what he was thinking and said rather self-deprecatingly:
"Today's Xuanwu clan only has this method of concealment that is worthy of praise. After all, it was a great clan in the past. After a period of glory, there must be something special about it."
Yinglong shook his head and said seriously:
"My Taoist friend Yun Shen's words are too arrogant. In my eyes, this method is unique. Moreover, with the current power of the Xuanwu Clan, it is still at the forefront of the ancient world."
"Therefore, I came here today to visit the Xuanwu Clan and to discuss important matters with the Xuanwu Clan."
Yun Shen's eyes suddenly condensed, his whole body changed from his previous posture, and he said in a deep voice:
"My cultivation level is low and I cannot see through the status of my Taoist friends. I can only talk about what is right and left in order not to offend my Taoist friends in order to save my life."
"But now that fellow Taoist has said that he is here to find the Xuanwu clan, let me offend you and ask, who are you?"
"We also need to confirm the identity of our Taoist friends first. I can also send a message to my fellow Taoists and report it to the clan. I will wait for their reply and see if I can lead the way."
Yinglong nodded to express his understanding and replied:
"I am Yinglong."
After Ying Long finished speaking, a wisp of dragon power appeared around Yun Shen, making Yun Shen almost tremble, feeling that his life and death depended on one moment.
Looking at Yinglong in front of him, Yun Shen immediately saluted respectfully and said:
"Yun Shen of the Xuanwu Clan, see the great god Yinglong. What the great god said has been passed down to the clan. Yun Shen also asked the great god to wait in his humble residence for a while."
Yinglong nodded and said with a smile:
"good."
Then he saw Yun Shen leaving in a hurry, while Yinglong sat calmly on the futon.
Ying Long had absolute confidence in his own strength. Just as he had followed Yun Shen directly before, he naturally had no worries about the Xuanwu clan's attempts to murder him.
In the Qilin world, Qilin was drinking tea in the main hall, but the tea had already cooled down. He seemed to be deep in thought. After a long time, he said in confusion:
"No, with Yinglong's power, we should have reached the Qilin Realm by now. Could it be that something delayed us on the way?"
"It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate. It seems that I still need to make some calculations. I don't know why, but I always have a bad feeling in my heart."
At first Qilin moved at his word, picked up a few pieces of clouds, and began to calculate Yinglong's whereabouts based on the glow in the sky.
After a long time, Shi Qilin's face turned extremely red and he shouted:
"Old man Zulong! What a thief! How dare you humiliate me like this! Could it be that he deceived me into the decline of the Qilin clan?"
After the words fell, Shi Qilin immediately fell into silence again. After a long time, he smiled sadly:
"Yes, our Qilin tribe is already lonely, so how can we still be qualified to compare with Dragon and Phoenix?"
But Shi Qilin immediately cheered up and said:
"It doesn't matter, it's just a temporary predicament. The clouds will eventually clear and the sun will finally clear. As long as I am still there, the Qilin Clan will eventually stand on the top of all races again!"
"As long as Qilin survives, he will eventually be the king of beasts. The core issue now is to restore the ethnic group first!"
As soon as the voice fell, the Qilin turned around and turned into a small Qilin about ten feet tall. It jumped slightly and disappeared into the main hall.
On the other side, Qi Ye finally returned to the Heavenly Court. Without further delay, he was immediately found by Emperor Jun Fuxi, who discussed going to the East China Sea to meet Zulong.
Fuxi took a sip of tea, but his gentle face was full of domineering that could not be refuted. He looked at Emperor Jun and Qi in front of him and said:
"The Heavenly Court has already made a decision on the Golden Crow Bathing in the Sun, and it is also related to the growth of the ten little nephews. Regarding this matter, whether Zulong agrees or not, it has already been a foregone conclusion."
"If he agrees, it will be the most wonderful thing for the Dragon Clan and Heavenly Court. On some minor details, Heavenly Court can also make some concessions."
"If he objects, everything will be based on Heavenly Court's plan. At that time, there will be no concessions and no more punishment. It will already be for the sake of Yinglong's hard work and merit."
"However, I think Zulong will not object. This person is extremely ambitious and has both character and means. He should be able to make exchanges for benefits."
Di Jun also nodded and said:
"Whether he agrees or not is nothing more than a trivial matter. There should be no mistakes in the trip to bathe in the sun. The key point is to evacuate the creatures in the East China Sea and try not to create too many sins."
"Based on this matter, if Zulong cooperates, it will be great and the impact can be minimized."
"If they want to cause harm intentionally, I pray that you might as well give them something when you go this time. The thunder and rain from heaven will be the best."
Faced with Di Jun's words, Qi just smiled.
